Parking: Parking in the Institute's terraced hillside lot -- upper two rows of loop -- requires a Parking Permit, which will be available and posted at the stairway leading up (95+ steps) to the MSRI building. The lot is reached directly off Centennial Drive. Disabled parking spaces are located at the entrance to MSRI's Chern Hall that is reached from Centennial Drive by turning onto the "Gauss Way" access road that leads to MSRI / SSL -- see the link provided below for directions to the Institute.
